IPL 2018: This is how Twitter reacted to the high scoring thriller between RCB & CSK

Cricfit Staff

Chennai Super Kings won the high scoring thriller against Royal Challengers Bangalore by five wickets. Dhoni and Rayudu played an integral role in scripting the win for the side. Bangalore bowlers had no clue on what type of deliveries to bowl was they were “toyed” by both of them.

Opting to bowl first, Chennai bowlers were thrashed all over the stadium by AB de Villiers and Quinton de Kock. ABD even hit the longest six of the season that touched 111m.

Tahir, with his tricky bowling, dismissed AB and Corey Anderson off consecutive deliveries as Bangalore finished their innings at 205/8.

Chennai wasn”t consistent with their batting as their power hitters Watson and Raina weren”t able to make an impact on the scorecard.

Billings and Jadeja fell in the web spun by Chahal and they were reduced to 74/4.

“Thala” Dhoni and Rayudu smashed all the bowlers to the nook and corner of the stadium and registered their half centuries.

Rayudu was dismissed after a scintillating knock of 82 runs that prompted Bravo to come to the crease. Bravo held his nerve as he scored consecutive boundary s of first two deliveries and Dhoni finished the honours with his “mandatory” six.

Rayudu is currently the orange cap holder whereas Dhoni scored his 19th IPL half-century ins style.

This is the highest score chased by CSK in IPL. It is to be noted that Chennai previously chased 202 against Kolkata in their second match at Chennai.
